For some reason I am unable to run the game in 800x600, and I HATE 640x480. I want to try 1024, but It says, not supported, and I am curios.

What graphics card are you running there, mate? If you don't have enough juice then the config program won't let you select the higher res' options. I've run the game on 1024x768 with a GeForce2 Ultra 64MB. It's okay, I guess. You can see for miles but the characters are very small on-screen.

Seems to give me a headache too, for some reason...

Oh my God, I have such a headache......1024x768 works though, but is the pain worth it?!?!?!?

My video card is good enough, tho 800x600 does not work. Like a dumb@ss, I had the wrong drivers DOH!!!, I loaded the proper ones, the card works better, but I probably need to play with the refresh rate, I'll work on that tomorrow.
